Plagiarism Policy
The International Journal of Clinical, Medical and Health Sciences considers plagiarism and unattributed use of another person's work unacceptable.
Submitted manuscripts may undergo similarity or plagiarism screening during editorial evaluation.
Authors must properly acknowledge all sources and distinguish their own work from previously published material.
Plagiarism may include, but is not limited to:
- Copying text without appropriate attribution
- Presenting another person's ideas as one's own
- Reusing substantial portions of previously published work without appropriate disclosure
- Duplicate publication
- Inappropriate manipulation of published material
Where plagiarism or related misconduct is suspected, the journal may investigate the matter and take appropriate editorial action.
Possible actions may include rejection, correction, expression of concern, or retraction depending on the circumstances.
